spark plugs can become fouled, disrupting operation.

the proper service interval).
Cleaning/replacing the air filter is carried out as
follows:
Remove the plastic fastener on the top of 1.
the air filter cowling and remove the air filter
cowling.
Remove the foam rubber pre-filter and clean
2.
using a mild detergent. Squeeze it dry with a
clean cloth.
Remove the wing nuts for the air filter and 3.
remove the paper filter.
WARNING!
The engine and the exhaust system
become very hot during operation.
There is a risk for burns if touched.
Allow engine and exhaust system to
cool at least two (2) minutes.
